  • Notes 
    • Ephraim Penrod 1866-1935

      Of all the Penrod brothers who founded Pinetop, none lived there longe r o r left a stronger imprint than Ephraim, known as Eph. He arrived ther e i n 1888 and remained until his death on May 10, 1935, except for a yea r wh en he worked in the mines at Clifton and one winter in Globe. Most o f hi s adult life he was a merchant and he also farmed and ran a herd o f cows . In the early days it was often necessary to dabble in many thing s to ma ke a living. Eph's granddaughter says he tried a number of profes sions, s uch as selling wild horses, prospecting, running a mill, and hau ling frei ght from Holbrook. She also states that Eph was a self-made man , as schoo ling in his day was almost unobtainable.

      Ephraim Penrod was the seventh child of William Lewis Penrod and Polly A n n Penrod. He was born September 17, 1866 at Payson, Utah, and came to A ri zona with his parents at the age of twelve. Shortly before he turned n ine teen he married Vilate Whipple of Show Low. The date was July 17, 188 5. T hey had two children, Lee and Bessie. Then Violate was taken by deat h o n July 9, 1891.

      Eph met Mary Jane Hansen of Woodland, daughter of Hans Hansen Sr., and t h ey were married on November 21, 1892 at Pinetop. To this union were bo r n ten children as follows: Elmer, Grace, Archie Hans Othello, William , Ma ry Jane, Viola Irene, Reuben Buster, Beatrice, and Galdys Elmina. Ge ral d Penrod, prominent and popular resident of Pinetop today, is a grand son.

      Eph and his family once had a strange adventure. Coming home from Clift o n in a covered wagon, they were held up at a point on the road by despe ra dos who had guns and demanded their horses and money. At a crucial poi nt , the oldest son Elmer stuck his head out of the wagon and said, "Howd y F loyd." It happened Elmer had gone to school with the son of one of th e wo uld be robbers and he had come along. The men then offered Eph almos t any thing if he wouldn't tell the sheriff, and they went their way empt y hand ed.

      Eph was described as having black lashes and brows which emphasized danc i ng blue eyes. He was rather a small man and wore a heavy mustache, an d h e had considerable charm. He had a large posterity.
